NCSoft Revenues Are Up Significantly For Q4 2021 Thanks To Lineage W’s Launch

NCSoft has released its Q4 2021 financial report hot on the heels of yesterday’s new game announcements. The company’s revenues are up by 51% compared to Q3 2021 and 35% compared to Q4 2020 with total sales amounting to ₩757.2 billion, or roughly $632.6 million.

A big chunk of the total sales was generated by mobile games which saw an 82% increase in sales quarter-over-quarter thanks to the recent launch of Lineage W. Revenue from PC titles, on the other hand, dipped by 12% quarter-over-quarter due to a whopping 58% decrease in year-over-year revenue from Lineage Classic. Blade and Soul has also seen a continuous decline in sales over the past year while Guild Wars 2 sales soared by 49% year-over-year which is likely due to the hype surrounding the End of Dragons expansion release and the Return to the Living World campaign.

The year ahead is also looking good for NCSoft with the impending release of Project TL (The Lineage) and Lineage W’s global launch later this year.
